​The Del Rio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce hosted a luncheon in honor of Administrative Assistants Day at the Ramada Ballroom. While the celebration was in recognition of the role that Administrative Assistants play daily in every business in town, special recognition was given to the memory of Ms. Connie Mendoza who served as Director of Finance for the DRHHC up until the tragic accident that took her life. Hispanic Chamber immediate past president served as Mistress if Ceremonies and shared memories of our departed friend. The event was a sold out event, enhanced by the presentation by guest speaker Ms. Shayla Rivera, former NASA engineer and now motivational speaker and comedienne, who kept the audience engaged in “food for thought” through humor. Door prizes were abundant and the meal fit the occasion. - Otila Gonzalez.
